lyrics

Burned out in a line
Bulbs all cracked and bloomed
Wallowing in suit
Wallowing in full
Sunburned on your neck
Aloe's on my tongue
Shoulders burn and radiate
Underwire's warped
Wiring's all shot
House it hums at night
Shallows off the dock
Sucking on your fingernails
Swearing the smoke
Sweating through the cloth
Yes I love America
Retard though you are

These are the lies that I've been telling you
(They tried to swim around)
These are the lies that I've been telling you
(The oil rig)
These are the lies that I've been telling you
(Stroking out in droves)
These are the lies that I've been telling you

Diving off the pier
Driver's license smile
Coral's made of bones
Ocean's piss and bile
Pissing off the roof
Beer has taught us love
Beer has taught us everything
Sparklers in the grass

On the beach in Carpenteria
Read a book by Charles Bukowski
On the beach in Carpenteria
Read a book by Charles Bukowski
Emptying your glass
Took me up to the little blue room
Softening the edge
Laid me down on the sagging bed
Vacuum cleaners suck the dust
Took me up to the little blue room
From flagpoles in your crown
Laid me down on the saggy bed
They came running in
He had something to say
Speedos and bare feet
Something about women
Conquering the oil rig
Happy Independence Day
And bringing beaches home
We all die anyway

Day trip in the sunrise
You never knew your own demise
There's my papa and my uncles running naked in the sand
